The chemical composition of the bottom sediments of the Amur River has been analyzed using modern analytical techniques. It was found that their composition and distribution patterns are controlled by several sources. The most probable sources for the bottom sediments of the studied area are siliceous magmatic or metasedimentary rocks.
